Stromness

Stromness is the second most populated town in Orkney, Scotland. It is in the south-west of Mainland Orkney. It is also a parish, with the town of Stromness as its capital.
==Etymology==
The name "Stromness" comes from the Norse ''Straumsnes''.〔 ''Straum'' refers to the strong tides that rip past the Point of Ness through Hoy Sound to the south of the town. ''Nes'' means "headland". Stromness thus means "headland protruding into the tidal stream".〔("Parish Names" ) Orkneyjar. Retrieved 27 Dec 2010.〕 In Viking times the anchorage where Stromness now stands was called Hamnavoe, meaning "peaceful" or "safe harbour".
